ARE STIRRING, Recent Rains Supply the Means to Resume Operations. Progr of Developments Promise to Be Very Satisfactory. The last week has been a good one for the miners of California and Nevada, in- asmuch as considerable snow and rain | have fallen and the streams are filling up. Repairs on mills have been rushed | to get ready for the season’s work, and there is general activity now all along | the lire. Placer claims in the north are orted to be in good shape for operat- The feature of the time is still the general prospecting for copper. A large forthcoming bulletin of the State Min- eralogist for the practical information which it contains. The scope of the pub- | lication has been already indicated. It| will be out of the State Printing Office | this month. Every copper property in the State is described and every prospect 1s_indicated. cporis are received of eries of copper in Arizona. n ent of the Los Angeles Times, writi from Jerome, makes the following stat ments: This district has seemed to centralize {n the sreat United Verde copper mine, made Senator Clark many times a millionaire.

Placers and Ledges. According to the Yreka Journal, the trouble between parties concerned in the copper mine in the Preston Peak section has been compromised. Late rains have furnished sufficlent water to operate the quartz mill of the Yreka gold mine at Salmon River. There is water enough in Humbug Creek for the placer mines. At Soulsby mine, so says the Tuolumne | Independent, the stamps run at night, leaving the water power to run the hoist in the daytime. The water has been taken out of the old workings of the Sem inole mine and underground work is pre gressing. The Union-Democrat reports that the Tanzy pocket mine near Sonora has been ylelding big bunches of gold recently, and that the finds of the pres- ent year will net the owners $50,00. The Stockton Smelting Company has started up its furnaces in the old Mason Reduc- tion Works and sulphurets df the Black Oak and Rawhide mines have been treated. Stephen Bowers, fleld assistant to the State Mineralogist, who has been explor- ing the Slate Range and Spangler Moun- n .in the vicipity of Borax Lake, re- ports that he examined a large deposit of iron ore in the Slate Range and ad- joining country, the extent of which was about one mile in length and one-half mile wide.

Farmers Find Mines. - The Mining and Sclentific Press calls attention to a familiar enough phenom- enon in Californi: he discovery of min- eral wealth in a locality that has long been worked over without revealing its hidden stores. The recent discoveries at Mormon Island and Folsom placers are referred to by the Press as follows: The rich placer strike made near Mormo: Irland and‘Folsom, in Spcramento County, is another illustration of a good mine missed by the old miners. Mormon 1Island was a big placer mining camp in 184 In 1869 the writer recalls it as given over to the Chinese, who were reworking the tailing piles of the 1548 miners. Its former brief glory is not even a | memory to the present generation, and few of the old miners Who worked at Mormon Island are still alive. The new discovery would ap- Dpear to be a rediscovery of the old channel of the American River at this point. The: miners who worked out Mormon Island in the early days knew nothing of channels. Gold was where they found it, and when they did not find it they moved on. Their successors for years have accepted this ancient verdict of con- demnation. It has remained for farmers to find the mine the miners missed. The incident of farmers finding mines has been common enough in the last twenty years in California 10 base expectations for its recurrence. It s hardly probable that this last discovery will prove very extensive. It is likely only a rem- nant that, missed in the old mining, is found now. But it does not exhaust the possibiiities of the vicinity of Folsom that awat discovery. In strongly calling attention to them, an in- wvestigation has been started that may lead to the opening up to exploitation of a dozen or more new old mines. The mining_plants in Meadow Lake District, in Nevada County, will use petroleum for fuel, which will be hauled in wagons from Truckee. A. L. Johnson and E. 8. Hadley of Sac- ramento, who bought a mine for a gola property between Greenwood and George- town, in El Dorado County. have devel- oped a three-foot asbestos ledge, twenty inches of it being fiber and the remainder asbestos rock. Twenty-eight men are now employed in the old Wedekind mine in Nevada, now known as the Reno Star. The property is near Reno and was recently described in this paper. The 100-foot level is being ad- vanced and the main shaft is down 140 feet. Nine men are working at the Eng- lish mill, near Wedekind, getting the plant in’ condition to develop 100 horse- i YouWantThe Best If your dealer does not handle the “GAYROCK BRAND” write us and we will furnish the name of one who does. ‘Write for our large map of the United States sent free on application.

Winnie O'Conner tossed the leg over Autolight, while Willie Buchanan piloted the 100-pounder Eonic, the 9 to 10 favorite. | Down near; the three-sixteenths pole Auto- light was bumped and nearly turned around by Galanthus. Nothing daunted, O’'Connor went to work on the brown horse and, later on bringing Buchanan to a drive, was given the verdict in a finish that sent the big crowd present Into a wild state of enthusiasm. Many thought Eonic had 'won, so closely aligned did the twoshorses cross the wire, while twice as many others were equally conndent Auto- light was the winner. When the numbers slayed, with Autolight first, it G with tremendous applause. rode Galanthus and no doubt the pumping was purely uninten- tional. The matter will be taken up by the track officials, and quite likely a mild fine will be imposed on the offending jockey. As on all previous occasions when a course is in a heavy condition, there is bound. to be more or less jostling, which is unavoidable because of horses tiring. | Form was well upheld, four favorites, a second and a third choice winning laurels. Things seem to be breaking better for Bob”’ Smith after a long siege of ill luck. He sent Grayfeld to the post in the Burlingame seliing stake at one mile and a sixteenth, worth §120 to the winner, and under Wilile Buchanan's clever riding was returned winner. P. first had the call, but re- , and J. Daly handled the mare about as well as a Chinaman can throw a curved ball. Bernota cut out the running for Grayfeld almost to the pad- y Obia ¢ ‘ceded to 5 to dock. Then Buchanan crossed the channel, scoring by more than a length. 1f Hoar on Horton had not grown over anxious way down the stretch and drawn his whip the prize might have been hi As it was Horton ran a dan- gerousiy close third. P. Ryan’'s Plohn hooked up with a clus- ter of cheap ones in the opening mile run. After six furlongs had been covered it looked as if Lost Girl might land, but the favorite stood for some vigorous urg- ing on O'Connor’s part, winning easily at the wire. Lost Girl at 20 beat First/Shot for the place. The St. Carlo youngster Hainault closed equal favorite with Commissioner Forster for the two-year-old sprint, and won all the way. The Commissioner tired badly the last furlong, losing the place to Dr. Scharff. The latter was away badly and ran a smashing good race. Three fast ones Meehanus, Frank Bell and Hilec met in the five and a half furlong scramble, and opinion was | about evenly divided as to the outcome. Hilee finally closed favorite, but showed no inciination to extend himeelf in _the going. Frank Bell could not lose Mee- hanus any part of it, and Caesar Young's horse actually rolled in first. at the close. Bell was second. Bullman put up a highly polished ride on old Wyoming in the last number, a six-furlong run, nipping the decision by a neck from Flamero. Reina de Cuba set a sizzling hot clip to the stretch, but could not earry it to the wire. Rollick, the second choice, finished a close third. Track Notes. Buchanan, who rode Landseer in the second event, was fined $25 by Starter Holtman. Most of what is termed the ‘‘educated money” went into the books on Frank Bell. Meehanus seemed a better horse than in any of his previous starts. Winnie O'Connor piloted two winners. He certainly deserved the reception he received for his persevering effort on Au- tolight, when it looked as if all hope of success had flown. Galanthus and John McGurk were all @ S @ power. Fourteen claims have been bought by Salt Lake parties near Battle Mountain. Bamberger Brothers have purchased ten clalms in the same locality. Platinum in Shasta. The Redding Searchlight has the fol- lowing: The value of platinum is beginning to be appreciated by the miners of Shasta County. There is a brisk demand for the metal, which commands a price of about §22 50 an ounce. A great many of the miners have heretofore paid no attention to this metal and have allowed it to go to waste, being unacquainted with its appearance and knowing nothing of the value of it. An aged German who is engaged in mining between Shasta and Keswick was in_town Tuesday morning and shipped to the United States Mint at San Francisco by express ten ounces of the precious metal. He said that he had been working his claim for some time and had allowed the strange metal to pass without particular attention, un- til while at work one day a Swede approachea him and asked him why he did not save It He replied that it was of no value, when the Swede explained to h'm that it was more valu- able than gold. The miner immediately began saving the mefal and his first shipment of ten ounces is expected to net him the handsome sum of - $230. The miner represents that he has a claim which will yield large quantities of the valu- able stuff. There have been some recent changes in owners of mining properties in Southern Oregon. The Victory mine on Soldler Creek has become the property of Chi- cago and Tacoma parties. Placers at Foot Creek have been transferred to a Beattle syndicate. The Tip Top .mine on ‘Williams Creek has been purchased by A. C. Merrill of Tacoma and George St. John. The Western Mining at Butte, Montana, sa. According to John Stanton, copper statisticlan for the associated producers, the production of copper in the United States for October reached a total of 24,098 long tons. This shows an in- crease for the first time in several months, being a gain of 753 tons. Of this gain 553 tons were made by reporting companies and 200 came from outside sources—the small mines and from custom smelters as a by-product. This gain, which might have not been ex- pected, had full credence been given to cur- rent rumors of closed works and idle mines, changed the small decrease shown at the end of September to a small increase over last years output. The actual gain for the ten mionths was 237 tons, or 0.1 per cent; the total for this year being 223,724 tons. That is, the production this year has been for ten months practically the same az in 1900, and there is every probability that the full year will show much the same result as the period already passed. An explanation of the plans for the re- opening of the Tombstone mines has been ven by Edward C. Kenney. who repre- sents the American Finance and Trust Company, which is financing the Ameri- can Development Company of Arizona. Kerney says that E. B. Gage, since the mines “were flooded, has been securing options and the syndicate now has con- trol ‘of sixty-eight mines in a group. The plan is to operate them all from the Grand Central. The shaft has been wid- ened until it is now 10x24 feet. It is pro- posed to put in pumps every twenty-four feet to control the water. 'he ore of all the mines will be taken out through one shaft by means of tunnels and electric cars. World, published e ‘Women Neighbors Quarrel. Mrs. Mary Dillon, 18 Georges = street, Potrero, was the complaining witness in Judge Fritz’s court yesterday against Mrs, Mary Dalton, her neighbor, on a charge of disturbing the peace. She testified that on Friday Mrs. Dalton used vulgar lan- guage to her children and she remon- strated with her.

CODPER MAKES ) NEW DEFENSE Raises Important Point in the Perjury Case. Alleges That the Grand Jurors Were Illegally Drawn. When “Sir” Harry Westwood Cooper, alias Ernest Moore Chadwick, appeared before Judge Cook yesterday to plead to the charge of perjury against him com- mitted during his trial for forgery im Judge Lawlor's court, Attorney Murphy made a motion to dismiss the indictment of the Grand Jury, raising an important point on behaif of the defendant. He clalmed that the Grand Jury that found the indictment had been illegally drawn by Judge Dunne on June 3 last. The statute provided that not more than thirty names should be drawn from the box and not less than twenty-five, but, Murphy contends, Judgd Dunne instruct- ed County Clerk Deane, while selecting the grand jurors, to d all of the 100 names from the box. The Judge then marked them off on a list of the names as they were called out by the County Clerk. " This procedure has been declared illegal by the Supreme Court. Murphy contended, therefore, that as the Grand Jury had been illegally selected it had no power to return the indictment against the defendant. Chief Deputy Goddard was called and testified as to the mode adopted in select- ing the 100 names for grand jurors and County Clerk Deane testifled that he had been instructed by Judge Dunne to break the seal of the box and remove all the slips, the Judge checking off the names as he called them out. e Judge then selected the nineteen grand jurors. It was done in open court and by instruc- tion of the Judge. The point raised took the District At- torney by surprise and by consent the further argument on the motion to dis- miss_was continued till Tuesday to give the District Attorney an opportunity to look carefully into the matter. Attorney Murphy was successful in car- rying his motion to dismiss the previous indictment against Cooper for perjury committed at the first trial of the for- gery charge before Judge Cook, and he believes he will be equally successful in the case at bar.

People who are subject to coughs or suffering from catarrh even in its mild- est forms should protect themselves against catching cold now, for more cases of consumiption are contracted in October and November than at any other tims during the year. Just at this season ths sputa of consumptives expectorated in the streets of every city and town during the summer has become thoroughly dried and, teeming with germs of the disease, is taken up into the air by the fall winds and inhaled by every living person. If the alr passages are in a healthy con- dition there is no danger, but let them become inflamed by coughs and catarrh, then these germs find lodgment on the in- flamed surfaces, multiply with astonish- ing rapidity and the disease consumption is contracted. Heretofors the public as well as the medical profession have been at a loss to prevent this terrible disease, but now that Government statistics and health reports have shown there is a way. and omly one, every person who contracts the dis- ease has only himself to blame for ths consequences. It has now been settled beyond all dis- pute that the new Dry-Air Germicide HYOMEI will cure consumption, and that coughs, catarrh, bronchitis and other diseases of the respiratory organs exist where it is used. HYOMEI protects and cures by destroying the germs which cause the disease, and which cannot be reached by stomach medicines. Every weak lunged or catarrh affected persom should use it daily.
